Traveling exhibit
features all 36 species of
wildcats from around the world For the first time ever, all 36 species of wildcats from around the world are represented in one exhibit. Focus on Nature: Wildcats of the World is a collection of 36 framed prints from oil paintings by endangered species artist Rochelle Mason and watercolor paintings from wildlife artist Linda DuPuis-Rosen. In addition to representing the 9 familiar big cats, this fascinating series brings much-needed attention to the rich and diverse family of 27 small cats, weighing less than 45 pounds, many of which have never been studied in the wild. The artist's works sensitively reflect the individual characteristics of each cat with a delightful infusion of "personality", which brings life to every vivid image.
